Software Anecdotes

• On Friday I downloaded a new version of "Acrobat Reader" (software for reading documents in "PDF" format).

• it automatically replaced the old version
• it linked itself with Netscape so that documents using this format are automatically displayed in the reader
• it took me about 5 minutes

• Norton Anti-Virus software...
• if you press a button, it will go out over the web back to its "home", get the latest version, and reload itself
• You can schedule the program to do this automatically
